Send us a textReleased in 1983, The Final Cut arrived in a Britain gripped by the Falklands afterglow, austerity economics, and the cold dread of nuclear escalation. It’s an album forged in a cultural moment when patriotism, paranoia and political theatre were colliding in real time. And into that moment Roger Waters poured something deeply personal: his lifelong grief for a father lost at Anzio, the trauma inherited from a generation of veterans, and a fury at leaders eager to turn conflict into capital. And if you listen closely, beneath the explosions and the sarcasm, you’ll hear something else: a fragile belief that empathy might yet survive the darkest times.Featured songs:The Post War DreamYour Possible PastsThe Gunner’s DreamParanoid EyesThe Fletcher Memorial HomeNot Now John
